Default Weird noises or just freaking out?

Ok, so to start off I had a CEL. P0300 and P0303, which following some of the guides I found, I did a valve adjustment. Now comes the strange part, start the engine and I get a loud ticking and metal sound. Thought it was the valves and I messed something up, but upon driving no CEL, and it quieted down. At 3k to 6k it is still very noticeable. I don't know if this is a valve noise (did the gaps right as far as I can tell) or if my TCT is bad and thats the ticking. How would I determine if it's the TCT or a bent valve? Video to follow in the next day or so... Thanks everyone!

Did the noise start the first time you started the car AFTER the valve adjustment? I would go back and 'check your work.'
